Bella's Room project

I am so embarassed to admit it, but after living in this house for one year we still have yet to decorate Bella's room!  There just always seems to be so much to do....My goal is to have her room done before this new little one arrives....however that is really really soon!  I hope I can meet my goal.  My mom came over this weekend to help me complete the cherry blossom project we decided would look darling above her crib....yep she's two and still in a crib.  I will be keeping her there for as long as we can, because otherwise we would never sleep again! 
We found a cute picture on Pinterest to copy, bought some brown paint, cherry blossoms, and rhinestones for the center of the flowers.  Since we are renting this house, we really can't paint the rooms like I would like to, but I think this brightens up her wall a lot!  We both loved how it turned out....not perfect, but real!
 The wall above her crib before we started....plain as can be.
 First we penciled in the way we wanted it to look, then my mom started painting..
